Great lesson on how to recognize notes on a chord by ear. I like the 5th when moving to another chord . Do more of these challenges to train our ears

Glad it helped! And well said, using the fifth before changing chords, that's a good way to think of it.

I enjoy your lessons and have purchased both your lead books as a result. I have been dedicated to learning the entire fretboard and have pretty much mastered note locations. In the end if you want to really advance on the guitar you clearly need to master knowing the fretboard. Thank you for your efforts and keep up the great work ! You are an inspirational teacher.
@GuitarLessonsVancouver4 ай бұрын
Thank you! Glad you are enjoying the books too. I'm planning on writing another book on mastering the fretboard, but I just haven't hand the time to write it out yet. Hopefully later this year I'll have some time to get it down.

Hi Blue! What can I say?! Sheer brilliance! Very incisive analogy of artist to get this concept across. I humbly concede my efforts to solo have taken on a steady upward trajectory since I per chance trolled upon your channel. I've tried copying the way you dance around, using 16th note triplets, double stops, crossovers with middle finger etc, to get to target note. Therein, also lies the 'taste' for want of a better word. Seriously considering subscribing. You go Blue!!!

I am almost at this point in terms of execution. The timing(for me) for hearing the lesson and concepts feels perfect though. Sometimes you are exposed to things at the wrong time. This feels, emotionally, like the answer to every question I have ever had about soloing. I know that's hyperbolic. I am just saying that I really value what you are presenting. The way in which it's presented is very strong also. So- Thanks. You are good at stuff.

I agree with the other folks. Blue is the most informative guy out there; and I've watched a lot. The other instructors present something, but leave it up to us to use it "however we want". Well, I don't yet know "however I want". Blue leads me down the path of how to actually use what he's talking about; BIG DIFFERENCE.

genius lesson. love the target ideas. Where did you learn your licks from and how many of your licks are learnt or are you just improvising? Curious to know how much time to spend learning licks against the theory behind the licks. Some of the best teaching and explaining yet. definitely heading over to your patreon.
@GuitarLessonsVancouver4 ай бұрын
Thank you! Most of my "licks" aren't really licks. Mostly I build ideas by stringing together smaller concepts. This video here explains how I do that: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q2WyhZprpM9khsk

What is the difference between chord tone targeting and arpeggios?? For example: If I play an open C chord no matter which string i play I am playing the tones of C or E or G, right? If I play an open C chord one string at a time arpeggiating rather than strumming no matter which string I play it targets the tones of C or E or G , right? Am I just over thinking this?

Another brilliant lesson. How do you do this for major scales though?
@GuitarLessonsVancouver4 ай бұрын
The same ideas apply in major, but we would target a major 3rd instead of a minor third. This video here talks about the major third, but in a slightly different context. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gWq0lYmhj66rd9Esi=ME7MSKyINz1BI79a
@slowpoke78884 ай бұрын
Great lesson, thanks. But shouldn't we be landing most of our riffs on a chord tone from the next chord? Does that make sense?
@GuitarLessonsVancouver4 ай бұрын
You can do that if the next chord is coming up real soon. But sometimes we want a lick that highlights the current chord. Or sometimes we would start a lick before the chord change, and target beat 1 of the chord change with a note from that chord. There are many options 🙂

Hi thanks for the video. Can you explain why you call pattern 4 "funny B string" when pattern 2 has the exact same thing happening with the G and B strings? Thank you!
@GuitarLessonsVancouver4 ай бұрын
It's just a silly name really. But the shape to me, looks just like Shape 1, but starting root on A string. So everything is a string up. Then the tuning of the B string shifts those notes up a fret. But really, it's just because that seems to be easier to communicate to students than Shape 4, because sometimes they forget the number of each shape.

@GuitarLessonsVancouver5 ай бұрын
That's a big question but you can't go wrong with any of those. They all sound good for lots of kinds of music. It might come down to which guitar feels right for you. Gibsons and Fenders have different necks, different scale lengths. Everyone tends to prefer one or the other. And then there's just this question: when you see it in the room, does it make you want to pick it up and practice? That might the most important thing.

So, again, it's memorizing, memorizing, memorizing. I wish there was just ONE thing on the guitar that comes AUTOMATICALLY. Like whenever you pick up your guitar with your left hand and you use a blue pick, you always sound like Hendrix, no matter what. But nope. Memorizing, memorizing, memorizing...
@feedrdev5 ай бұрын
I prefer to think of it as "training" vs memorizing. You're learning, and it is hard because you're engaging certain areas of the brain for the first time. It will become automatic as long as you keep at it for some time. Many pros can improvise without much effort only because it's become automatic after hours and hours of training. The investment of effort will start to pay dividends in making things look effortless.
